  + Horde_View

  Documentation on the Horde_View package. This documentation is  
adopted from the MAD documentation  
(http://framework.maintainable.com/mvc/5_view.php), as many of the  
Horde View ideas are also adopted from MAD, and the helpers are  
directly compatible between the two systems.
